Parquet Flooring in Llanrhystud
Parquet flooring is a variety of wood flooring in which small wood blocks or strips are installed alongside one another to produce a distinctive design across the entirety of the floor. Parquet was historically installed with each individual strip painstakingly laid, but modern parquet can be purchased in bigger tiles or planks to give the same appearance. Parquet floor is an exceptionally fashionable flooring option which works best in large rooms or hallways where the attractive pattern can be best displayed. Parquet is available in numerous different styles, the most popular of which are herringbone, chevron or checkerboard. Parquet may also be manufactured from a massive selection of different woods, but oak is the most popular, accompanied by mahogany, maple and cherry. Modern parquet flooring may come in either solid wood or engineered wood variations, the latter of which feature several layers of wood with a fibre board core and a top layer of the desired appearance of hardwood. Parquet floor is durable and needs little maintenance. It is, however, not suitable for areas that contain lots of moisture or humidity as the wood will warp or flex under these conditions. Parquet is often installed by using a number of tiles that are fixed to the subfloor with an adhesive. An expert parquet floor company will be able to suggest the most appropriate wood types and designs for your home.
